Water Bottle with a Filter




Over the last ten years water suppliers have come out with smaller and smaller water bottles including Arrowhead's pint size and Trader Joe's 8 ounce bottle. The saving water trend is now over and companies are sporting green labels on their bottles for using less plastic. Arrowhead and Aquafina are making the bottle cap half the height and marketing that the thickness of their plastic is using less plastic.

One step ahead of the game is Karim Rashid's Bobble water bottle and filter in one. The Bobble costs less than $10 and is made of recycled plastic. The filters promise to serve over 250 refills (150 liters) and can be ordered from the Bobble website. The bottle is BPA-free, ensuring that toxins are not leaked into your water bottle, unlike the recent allegations against Nalgene bottles.

Karim Rashid, has over 3,000 designs in production, is a recipient of over 300 awards and is working in over 35 countries. There is no doubt that the Bobble doesn't have a promising future.
